Saturdays Balls.

Young Mems Benevolent association

though not exactly success as mas

The salado Booms Again.

The Sal8do was at one time brisk
stream, and there was a good supply Of
water 10 il to run Laux's mill. Then IL
was the resort of local sports In winter,
and fishers rendezvous 10 summer, but
about ten years ago II began to dry mp
until its volume had become insigniti-
cant. The main cause Of this change
was the drying up Of q spring that was
the main source of its supply. Recently
the spring has re opened, and IL Is now
working actively. Now the Salado is
assuming Its old proportions again. The
cause for this change Is a matter of con-
siderable speculation, but there seems
to be no doubt that 1t is the result OF
seismic disturbances Of a mysterious
character.

EDWIN BOOTH
Pleases San Antonio by His Impersona-
ttions "Richelieu" and Hamlet"

Pleases San Antonio by His Impersona-
ltions "Richelieu" and Hamlet"
Edwin Booth made his debut on the
San Antonio stage on Saturday and was
met by n large and enthusiastic audi
ence assembled there In compliment to
the great trsgedian.
Lord Lytton's celebrated play, "Rloh-
ellen" written for Macresdy, one OF
Edgland's celebrated trsgedians, was
produced at the matinee, and there can
no question as to IT'S success. Booth. OF
course. enacted the title role, and pre-
sented an accurate portrait OF the great
cardinal las he lived" and In that por-
trait he "held the mirror up to nature"
Everything was so natural that the ac-
tor was absolutely lost In the character
In Booths Richelleu you see an "aged"
msn-not bowed by age, but by
oare-s politician keen and cum
ming, having the heart and nerve to
act his part In his conntry's history.
Every scene showed anothe. phase OF
the great cardinals character, making q
striking picture as whole, but one
thing was peculiarly manifest that is
that Booth read his lines with fidelity,
making no appeals for the public sp-
plause ny rant and undue emphasis.
The character evidently met public APP
probation and Booth was called many
times before the curtain Miss Vsders,
as Julie. Mr.. John Malone, as D'Msu.
pratt, and Mr.. Hsnlon, as Barsdss, rem
dered sufficient service to the piece.
Hamlet, MS played at the light per-
fOrmsnce, has been essayed by all great
tragedians and many Of them all made
different readings OF the character.
Booths character represents Hamlet as
sane man having "method In his mad
ness" the aim being to discover and
avenge the murder Of his father, and
there can be no question that this view
is in keeping with the text. In this
character Booth Is easy and natural, and
while his Hamlet Ia undoubt-
eddy great one, there are
weak points that may proceed from
apathy. As an whole, however, the
character was well enacted and deserved
the many recalls that he received. Miss
Vaders' Ophelia, especially In the mad
scene, was excellent and won for her
much applause.
The writer has seen Macready, Sam
Phelps, Charles Kean, SalvIni, swrence
Barrett. Henry Irving, w. Creswick,
Mccullough, Fred Warde, Tom Keene
and many Others who have made their
names famous In the temple Of Thespus,
and with all these Booth makes fair COM
parison. There are defec In Booth as
there may be 10 others, but his defects
are overshadowed by the general brill
lance OF his impersonations.
1t Is worthy of remark that for this
occasion the orchestra from the Eighth
Cavalry band, under direction of Will
helm Marx, was increased to thirteen
pieces and played some remarkably fine
music during the evening"

great tragedy. Mr.. Booth was appsr-

A schoolboy's composition on ''The Editor''' ran as follows: The editor is one of the most happiest individuals in the world. He can go to the circus in the afternoon and evening without paying a nickel also to inquests and hangings. He has free tickets to the theatre, gets wedding cake sent to him and some times a licking, but not often, for he can take things back in the next issue, which he generally does. While other people have to go to bed early the editor can sit up late every night, and see all that is go- ing OH. When l am a man I mean to be an editor, so that I can stay
 out late at nights. Then that will be jolly.

Grave apprehensions are express ed by stockmen along the San Pehro, says the Tombstone Demo crat, regarding the extreme dry weather and it's probable effect on the spring rodeo. It is feared that unless the rains comes within the next two weeks the grass will be damaged to such an extent as to preclude the possibility of any eff fectiye work being accomplished at the May meeting Horses all along the river are reported in poor flesh, and unable to stand the work nec- essary to a thorough roundup.

There seems to be a general de- sire on the part of many heavy cat tie owners in the cold regions of the North and Northwest to remove with their herds to the Southwest, where loss from cold or other in clemencieS Is never heard of. Com munications lately received from these sections place Arizona in the front rank of preferences, which go to show that although an output in stock may not be as heavy or att tract the attention that others do, we nevertheless enjoy rich repa- tation among our cattlemen abroad. -Hoof and Horn.

There was an attempt made in Nogales last week to murder MT. James Speedy. It seems that he was induced to cross the line into Mexico under the pretext of taking cigar, after which the late trouble was brought up, and with this the firing commenced, Several shots were fired at Mir. Speedy as he re- treated across the line into his own country, none of whick took effect The parties were arrested by the Mexican authorities but were soon released. It begins to look as though a certain element of the Mexican population are determined to keep upthese outrages until they plunge their country into war; Tombstone Democrat.

The four TOnto Indians who left the reservation last week, commit ted one murder, attempted several others and stole a lot of horses, have not been captured yet, and are not likely to be rounded up" till they tire of raiding and are ready to surrender. Such occurrences as this will be repeated so long as the San Carlos reservation shall be maintained, and if the Government cannot see this truth the people of Arizona had as well prepare to ap- ply the remedy themselves. There are but two remedies-removal or extermination. The former rests with the Government, the latter with the people of Arizona. The Government seems disinclined to act, therefore the people of Arizona must, or be content to see their fel- low citizens murdered, their prop erty destroyed and the development of our resources retarded. These are plain, unvarnisbed truths that no amount of fine writing can dis guise, and the sooner we look them sqnare in the face the better for.us.

There has never been time since the beginning of the range stock industry, when there was greater necessity for a thorough territorial organization than now. Margins of profit have been cut down dur ing. the last two years, and score of extraneous questions have been sprung that have greater. or Jess bearing on tue business. Among these, all the most vital is the ques- tion of range rights and the condi- tions growing out of this. The rev olutions of the wheels of time will regulate the question of q market for the produce, but the -stocknen , themselves must shape the policy ;. that is to govern: i'll these other. matters. While there: are many ranges so under control as to be but little affected by. outside infu- ences, the great majority of cattle men are in a positiontu be serious ly menaced by unfriendly legisla- tion and crowding of the range. By associated effort and the counsel of the best men much good can be ef- fected and much harm prevented. The old work of the associations must be supplemented by intelli- gent and careful investigation of all these new phases. Hence. at the approaching spring meetings of all the associations there should be a full attendance and a disposition to patiently consider all pertirenta questions. Keeping in mind the fact that the good of all is the good of each, you can do much for the industry.-Hoof and Horn.
